[Q] music, and gallery says empty

[energysipher323]

In my music and gallery app, they both say no media found. I have already searched the rescan apps on the playstore, and tried them all but none of them fix the problem. So what do i do here?

Hi,

Open your sdcard from pc/phone explorer and search if their is a file called ".nomedia" in music and galary folder if yes then delet that file and restart your phone. music and galary will be back

If not try to backup your sdcard and format it from phone and try again

Hi

If you searched from phone explorer you will have enable hidden files to search for".nomedia"

2 I think you will have to format the sdcard

By the on which rom are you

Hey, I had the same problem a week ago. What I did was download an app from the appstore called SDRescan. It's the perfect app for this kind of problem to be honest.

I've already mentioned on the first post that i have already tried that. Everyone says it fixes the problem but they lied because it didn't fix mine.

put your files from sd card to your pc via card reader,format your sd card through card reader,put it back to phone,check via any file explorer on your device that the card is shown on your phone,pull out the card,transfer your files to your sd card via card reader,insert it back to the phone,check the gallery...

Try to reboot your device

Try to reboot your device and see what happens. I encounter the same problem and decided to reboot. Doing that solves my problem. :angel:

 

[energysipher323]

No matter what i do nothing fixes this ****ty problem. So i just formatted everything including sdcard and reinstalled rom.

I have a similar problem, the photos that I upload to outlook, facebook.... now appears duplicated in gallery, when physically not.

I've tried clean /cache, dalvik cache, re-mount sdcard, reboot phone.. but these methods has no effect

I'll try to make a backup of dcim photos in another folder, reboot, then put again the photos.

PD: also I tried to delete the famous .nomedia file, but I don't founded it!
